Frequency domain stability measurements: A tutorial introduction
Abstract
The concept of stability measurements of oscillators by spectral analysis is introduced. The equipment and set-up for stability measurements in the frequency domain are outlined. Examples and typical results are presented. Physical interpretations of common noise processes are discussed. A table is provided by which typical frequency domain stability characteristics may be translated to time domain stability characteristics.
